About the Awards

A peer reviewed process

The Party Stylist of the Year Awards is designed to recognise and present an opportunity for all sized businesses who work in, and supply to the Australian party industry.

With a peer reviewed system of judging, based on meeting standarised criteria, winners are awarded on merit rather than a public votes system. We believe this allows for a fairer and more balanced approach to recognising those who serve our industry with grace and commitment and are worthy of mention no matter how many clients they serve.

A panel of experts

Judges work in our industry and have experience serving the same customer base as you. They understand your challenges, and they identify with your successes.

Benefits of awards

Awards programs may feel like a rah-rah parade for the popular kids. But if you’re not tooting your own horn it’s not likely anyone else will either. Stand up and be proud of what you do, so that the industry and your clients can celebrate your talent.

Registrations

Entrants complete a questionnaire, submit details about their business, and share client feedback.
This is a simple process taking approximately an hour to complete.
